Weekly Blog 16: Love and War



 Hello ‘Ilima

    This past week has been exhausting to say the least. Events from Monday seem like decades ago. But it has all been meshing finely. First of all, we had made winter decorations for A101 and I really like mine. It is a scene of snowman surrounding a present and it is amazing. But it is very fragile. Then, this was my first week working box and I was so nervous. I was told the different things I had to do and then I was strapped in. It went pretty good and I don’t think I made any mistakes which will make me fell better next time I work box. Next, I have a fun story about friendship. This was on Friday and my friend had to go to the bathroom. I was waiting for him and all of a sudden, the bus started coming on the campus. I called my friend but he didn’t pick up and from across the campus I saw him enter the bathroom. So I started sprinting to the bathroom to get to him immediately. But 2 unfortunate things would happen. First, my IDs all fell onto the ground and I had to scramble on the floor to get them. Then, with IDs in hand, I ran as fast I could until I was almost there and then the worst thing could happen. BANG! I fell to the floor and everyone started looking at me. But I couldn’t just lay on the ground and watch as the bus would leave, so I did a roll to quickly get up and I yelled at my friend, “THE BUS IS HERE!” We quickly ran to get out bags and we barely made it onto the bus. This was all so nerve racking and I couldn’t even breathe. This whole story was so exhilarating and I’m just glad we made the bus. This week also had an evacuation and we had to carry signs. But those signs were some of the nastiest things ever. The smell was terrible and everyone couldn’t even breathe, so I was glad that I always had a mask on. Overall this week was just exhausting but fun.

My Winter Decoration  

 TV from this week.

    A highlight from this week would be making the bus on time because I was very stressed that one or both of us would have missed the bus. Another highlight was the end result of working box because I got to feel proud of my work. A lowlight would have to be holding the signs because they were disgusting. Another lowlight would be preparing for working box because I was very stressed that I would mess something up.

    A lesson I learned from this week is good work pays off. This connects to many things from this week and might as well be the overall phrase of the week. First of all, I had to work TV and the good work I did made the TV broadcast good. Then my good work of making the decoration made a great finishing project . Next, my good work of helping my friend by telling him the bus was here was the outcome of both of us making the bus. Having good work pays off.

Hello 'Ilima As I lay down on my bed, my phone starts ringing.  "Hey, it's John from the Book Club! Are you ready for the first meeting?" Oh no! I panic. When I first moved in, there was an advertisement for a book club and I decided to join it. The first meeting would be today and I would need to talk about a book I recently read. I looked around my house, trying to find the right book to talk about, but none of them stood out. None except "2425", I grabbed the book, got dressed, and dashed towards where the book club was being held.  "Hello everyone! Welcome to the first meeting of our book club. I hope you are all ready to share your books" John said, sitting from his spot in the group circle. After the first couple of people shared their books, it was then my turn to share. I took a deep breathe and then began talking. Summer: After 7th grade ended, there was a short break where we could relax before it was time for Bridge to start up again. Un...

Weekly Blog 3-7 (60): Meeting of the Victors

Hello 'Ilima What is up ‘Ilima! This week of school was much more of a ramp up week as next week is the big one. But that doesn’t mean this week wasn’t full of stuff to do. The biggest school event would be the Graduation Meeting. During this meeting, parents would learn about the 8th grade graduation and learn about the different parts of the graduation. There wasn’t very much to do as a leadership member, but it was still good to hear about the information for my graduation. That was the only school event, but I still had a bunch of class work. First, we have had this project in Computer Science where we need to guide a robot from one point to another. This project has been pretty frustrating at times because the robot sometimes just doesn’t do what you want it to do. And it’s hard to make changes to your programming because we are sharing the robot amongst the whole class, making it difficult to see the changes you make. I wish we had multiple robots in order for us to be able t...

Weekly Blog 3-6 (59): Shopping for Tests

 Hello ‘Ilima What’s is up! This week was only 4 days long, but was still full of many things. Starting with Leadership related things, we had the second Recognition Night of the year on Thursday. There was a lot less people this time, but it was still fun to cheer on the people who got good grades. I had gotten a 4.0 and walking up on stage was cool. The most interesting part of Recognition Night was what happened before it as me and some people from Leadership had fun doing random things outside. We had a race, listened to music, and more. Moving onto school stuff, we had the Science SBA this week. I was pretty anxious because I had no idea what to expect for the test. So when I first opened the test, I was met with a lot of things that I had not learned before. But I endured the pain and after two classes, I finished my SBA with Level 4. It was a terrible experience, but at least I got a good score. Final thing I will mention is that there was an ELA poster that we had to create...
